Never before has a tiny talking tree been so divisive.

Ever since Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn tweeted back in February that the first Groot "is dead", Twitter has been in a frenzy. And things only got worse when Gunn tweeted even more (spoilery) Groot details off the back of Avengers: Infinity War on Sunday night.
